3) Update: First Ave & Santa Clara St to Re-Open in Mid-March - Arcadia   Crews are on-schedule to complete grade crossing improvements at First Ave & Santa Clara St in late-February; however, the project's parking contractor will keep the street closed an additional couple of weeks to install roadway improvements. This additional work was added now, to avoid having to close the intersection again in the future.  Once completed, the intersection will re-open to thru-traffic in mid-March.   Remember, surrounding businesses continue to remain open during construction, and we encourage you to continue to support them!

4) Upcoming: Series of Foothill Blvd Closures at Railroad Bridges - Azusa   WHEN - February 28, 2014 to late-May 2014   Over the next few months, crews will be installing steel beams to complete the three rail bridge structures (one for freight and two for light rail) over Foothill Blvd. This work will require a combination of full and one-way closures of Foothill Blvd, between Vernon Ave and Orange Ave.   Starting in late-February, Foothill Blvd will be closed to thru-traffic in both directions between Vernon Ave and Orange Ave. for up to two weekends. Following the first weekend closure, eastbound Foothill Blvd, between Vernon Ave and Orange Ave, will be closed to thru-traffic daily for six weeks (between the hours of 4 AM and 2 PM only). Once the eastbound work is completed, westbound Foothill Blvd, between Vernon Ave and Orange Ave, will be closed to thru-traffic daily for six more weeks (between the hours of 9 AM and 10 PM only).   Detours and signage will be in place to guide motorists around the construction activity. The sidewalk will remain closed to pedestrians during the full weekend closure, but pedestrian access will be available on one side of Foothill Blvd during the one-way closures.   Local businesses, and access to them, on Foothill Blvd will remain open during the closures. We encourage you to take the time to help these businesses during these closures. Click here for construction notice. Click here to view Azusa-Alameda construction activity map.
